     Els infants tenen dret als jocs, perquè els seus músculs necessiten expandir llur vitalitat excessiva, i per a poder seguir llur vida activa, cal donar-los llocs on puguin expansionar-se.

     Children have a right to play, because their muscles need to expend their excessive vitality, and to be able to follow their active life, they must have places where they can express themselves.
